The secret is not to give up hope. It's very hard not to because if you're really doing something worthwhile I think you will be pushed to the brink of hopelessness before you come through the other side.

rantnrave:// I grew up in NYC in the 80's. Prime time for club life. My first business was club promotion. Our social media? Nightlife fliers. They were an art. Legendary DJ STRETCH ARMSTRONG takes a look in his new book... At the 2017 UPFRONT SUMMIT in LA, I sat down with pal MARK CUBAN to discuss startups outside SILICON VALLEY, great entrepreneurs, greatest public startups, protecting freedom of the press, politics, combatting online trolls and sports... For all the industry's value and opportunity, almost every aspect of the video business is under attack or in a state of flux. Last year, the REDEF team created a deck designed to help leaders chart a path forward... Heroes are celebrated but choke artists are never forgotten. It doesn't mean their careers are ruined. Failing on the biggest stage can break a person or it can build them up. We take a look in our REDEF SportsSET: "The Art of the Choke"... You're out of juice and need a charge. You see a USB or power outlet at the airport or some public place. Safe right? Think again... JFK on the importance of the press in a free society. And JOHN MCCAIN... I support journalism... "You Can Go F Yourself": LARRY WILMORE vs. MILO YIANNOPOULOS and more... Knowledge vs. Experience in one image... Where's your best DIM SUM?... Happy Birthday to ALEX HARDIMAN, ANDREW ROSS SORKIN, JOHN HARROBIN, GEOFF HARRIS and LISA ELLIS.
